Chapter Five – More Plans

Two days later – Saturday June 2nd, 2001

Liz had just gotten off the phone with Max. He had just told her that his and Isabel's parents had said yes to the trip to Florida. Now they just needed the okay from Alex, but that would be easy. Liz sighed and headed over to the kitchen.

Just then the doorbell rang, Liz jumped up and ran to the door wondering who it was. She opened the door and there stood Tess.

Liz: "Tess, hi what are you doing here?"

Tess: "Hi Liz, umm well we never really talked about the destiny stuff and I figured there's no time like the present."

Liz: "Sure, umm why don't you come in."

Tess: "Well, I guess what I wanted to tell you is. I have no intention of taking Max away from you anymore, I guess I never really did but I was just following what I was always taught. But I don't love Max in that way I mean as a brother sure but not as a boyfriend. Besides Kyle and I have been getting a lot closer lately and I really like him."

Liz: "Wow Tess, thank you. I'm sure it was really hard for you to tell me that and I really appreciate it and I hope we can start over and be friends. Are you and Kyle coming to Florida?"

Tess: "I think so, why?"

Liz: "Well, everyone is coming over tonight so we can start planning the trip, so you two should come too."

Tess: "Sounds good we'll be here around 6:00, bye for now."

Tess got up and left Liz's apartment. Liz stood there and smiled everything for their plans was coming together, they were going to be in Florida before they knew it.

Three hours later

Everyone had arrived at Liz's apartment and was settled and ready for planing.

Liz: "Okay so, the first thing I think we need to discuss is how we're getting there. Do we want to fly or drive if we fly we are going to have to walk everywhere because it's too expensive to rent a car."

Max: "Well, I think driving could be really fun. The only thing is is we need two cars and a few people to drive cause if we drive straight through it'll take us about a day and a half."

Tess: "I think we should drive straight through."

Kyle: "Me too"

Liz: "Does everyone agree with that?"

Everyone nodded or said yes so that part was decided.

Liz: "Ok, so now who's cars are we going to bring."

Tess: "Well, my SUV can seat 7 but with luggage probably 4 comfortably but most of our luggage should fit in my SUV."

Liz: "That's great thank you Tess."

Max: "We still need another car."

Maria: "Well I'd let you use mine but it's small I don't know if people would be comfortable. Two people is probably all I could take me and well most likely Micheal."

Liz: "And I have my parents car, that can fit me and someone else as well."

Tess: "Okay so, who wants to come with me?"

Kyle: "I'll come with you."

Alex: "I guess me and Iz too because Max and Liz as well as Maria and Micheal will most likely want to go together, is that okay Iz?"

Isabel: "Yup, that's what I figured anyways it's fine with me."

Liz: "Okay so that's settled. Okay next we need two people to be in charge of picking stops for meals."

Alex: "I will, I have the most access to the internet out of all of us. Iz, will you help me you can make sure I pick the right places."

Isabel: "Of course someone has too. What's next Liz?"

Liz: "Well, every car need a detailed map with all the stops on it. Isabel can you take care of the maps?"

Isabel: "No problem."

Max: "What next O master Liz?"

Liz: "Sorry am I being too organized?"

Max: "Nah, I'm just kidding around. I think it's great that you are so organized I certainly wouldn't have thought of all this. So, really what's next?"

Liz: "Well, everything inside the the resort is free, the rooms, the room service. You know all that fun stuff. Also, the spa is totally free for us."

Isabel: "Oooo a spa."

Liz: "Yup, umm there's also shopping nearby but we have to pay for that. There is a pool at the hotel but there's also a beach attached to the hotel and the snack bar there is free for us as well."

Micheal: "This is going to be fun."

Liz: "Yes it is. Well, I think that everything taken care of now."

Alex: "Okay then. Well, I'll be headed out. Anyone want a ride?"

Isabel: "I'll have one."

Alex: "Sure, okay let's go. Bye guys!!"

Kyle: "Well, I need to go too. Tess could you give me a ride home seeing as though you drove me here."

Tess: "No problem. Let's go. Bye guys."

Shortly after Tess and Kyle left, Micheal and Maria left as well. That left Max and Liz alone.

Max: " So, are you excited about this trip?"

Liz: "Yes, so excited. Plus, I get like a day and a half in a car with you. That's going to be fun."

Max: "Yes it is. You want to watch a movie or something before I have to leave.

Liz: "Sure."

Liz stood up picked a movie and put it in. Then they sat back and enjoyed the movie.
